Regular oil changes: The foundation for long-term reliability
Many automotive experts believe the most basic building block for helping your Chevrolet live a long and healthy life is getting regularly-scheduled oil and filter changes. Your motor oil is the lifeblood of your car, carrying away harmful dirt and grime to keep your engine running dependably for many miles.
How often should you change your oil? There was a time when oil changes were recommended every 3,000 to 5,000 miles, and if you do a lot of urban, stop-and-go driving, it might be a good idea to change your oil more frequently even today. But if you drive a reasonable mix of city and highway miles, with today's more advanced synthetic oils, you can probably change your oil every 7,500 to 10,000 miles. We can help you decide what's best.
Keeping your battery properly charged
Your battery can gradually deteriorate without getting noticed. At least not until it passes away and leaves you stranded on some highway far from Arroyo Grande or Goleta, CA. We can check your battery every oil change, clean off any corrosion from the cables and make sure it's charging the way it should. If we see that you need a new battery before the old one lets you down, we have great ones in stock and we often run battery specials.
Your brakes might be telling you that they need attention
If you hear a squeak, a grind or a squeal when you step on the brake pedal, that might be a signal from your brakes that they need to be inspected. If we catch the problem early enough, you might only need new brake pads. If the issue is farther down the road, like when you feel your car shaking as your foot hits the brake pedal, you might need new brake rotors as well. Check our Service and Parts specials for good prices on brake pads and rotors.
We'll keep an eye on your tires and a lot more
We'll be happy to rotate your tires with every oil change, to extend their life. We can also inspect your tires for uneven wear or any form of significant damage. When your tread is starting to wear thin or you just need new tires, we always have a good selection in a variety of attractive prices and warranty coverages. If needed, we can provide financing for almost any repair. Schedule your service today at Sunset Auto Center in Lompoc, CA.
